A Time for Everything

There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plan and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8


AWARENESS


In our seasons of life
some things grow and
some things die
time and knowledge can create and break
all types of beliefs long held
beliefs that build strong walls around
an incorrect perception of truth

To transform…
allow time to know when
to mend and heal
when
to embrace and tear down
those old walls of dominance and blindness
there is a time to do all things
if the mind is prepared

ACTION

Slowly slowly slowly
awareness blossoms into action
a person changes
a class changes
a school changes
a district changes
a system changes
a country changes
slowly slowly slowly
one grain of sand at a time……….

is firmly together
to stand against
the wave

CHANGE

Until…. each student

is respected
for the color, texture, composition of their each individual life
and not judged by a cover
so access to all things is equal

And we build a new wall
of all kinds of people
but
built strong
and holding each other up in our own diversity

the vision of the future begins…
and the time is now
to mend and heal
that broken system
of blindness


COMMENTS:
I am really impressed with your board. I can really see that you must have an artistic side to you. It would be very difficult for me to come up with something as creative as this. Very nice.
